Within the Kathmandu valley alone, over 500
species of birds have been recorded. The surrounding
hills offer a varied ecology ranging from primary and
secondary forests to rhododendron, oak and pine forests.
In addition, the wetlands and open fields inside the

birds.

warblers, tits, thrushes, minivets, woodpeckers, eagles
and many migrant birds. Godavari, at the foot of
Phulchoki hill where the Royal Botanical Garden is
situated, records over 100 species of birds including
